From: Penetration of anticancer drugs through tumour tissue as a function of cellular packing density and interstitial fluid pressure and its modification by bortezomib

Figure 1

Effects of EGTA (10 mM) or bortezomib (1uM) pre-treatment on penetration of gemcitabine (panels A and C) and 5-Fluorouracil (panels B and D) through MCC derived from HCT-8Ea (panels A and B) and HCT-8E11 cell lines (panels C and D). Data are presented as the ratio of radio-labeled drug concentration in compartment 2 to expected drug concentration at equilibrium. Panels shows penetration of gemcitabine or 5-fluorouracil through MCC without pre-treatment (·), and following pre-treatment with EGTA (▲) or bortezomib (■). Data points represent the mean of 3 or more experiments ± SEM.
